Tal Slann is a life long resident of Clemson.  Together he and his wife Shelley are raising their two children, Jacob age nine, and Lauren age 7.  Tal graduated from Clemson with a Marketing degree and Shelley from the University of Tennessee also with a Marketing degree.

In 1995 Tal started a small auto dealership, Upstate Auto Brokers, Inc.  The goal was and is to this day to provide the Clemson area with a more cost effective way to buy both new and used cars.  In 1997 Tal began investing in rental property in and around Clemson.  He found that if he invested a little more time and money in the properties that the tenants not only appreciated it but they would also pay a little more for the property.

In 2004 Tal met Neil Monaghan and together with Russ Hebert they formed a company that would later be known as HMS Development, LLC.  The reason was simple, to offer the Clemson area an alternative in housing.  Like his partners Tal has a commitment to quality that has no rival in our market place. 

Having grown up in Clemson but traveled extensively in Europe and the Middle East, Tal had some new ideas for some old properties in Clemson.  The idea was to re-development older and some what run down properties.  In this way the community and the new homeowner would benefit.

Tal and his partners’ first endeavor was The Enclave on Sloan and the second The Courtyard on Sloan transformed Sloan Street from unsightly run down apartments to the finest luxury condominiums in Clemson.

Tal, along with Russ and Neil are now working on the same sort of transformation on Calhoun Street with their latest project, Oakledge on Calhoun.

Both Tal and HMS Development are committed to making our community a better place for everyone to live.  Upon completion of each HMS project a donation is made to a local charity.  In this way, Tal and his partners give back to the community in which they live.
